Predestined Relationship with Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou

After taking B ultrasound in Djakarta, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. At the age of 70 years old, she become much optimistic and was not scared by the sudden cancer. She just took some medication to control her condition instead of going to seek for better treatments. She said that her tumor shrank after taking the medication, but the condition was still worse. In June 2014, her tumor became bigger, and she felt tired and was in a low spirit. On June 18th, physical examinations showed that her tumor has metastasized to the internal mammary node of the left side and axillary lymph nodes. Her condition was critical. Although WINARNI accepted the harsh reality, her husband and children never allowed her to give up and wait for death. Considering the risk of operation and the failure experiences of her friends, WINARNI and rejected to take operation and decided to look for better non-surgical treatments.

One day, her daughter Diana occasionally browsed the website of Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou. “Is there anything we could help?” the greeting from the website of Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou started the predestined relationship. After deeper understanding interventional therapy, cryotherapy and other minimally invasive therapies, accompanied by her two daughters, she came to Modern Cancer Hospital Guangzhou for treatments.
